A factor that specifically binds to the 5'‐untranslated region of encephalomyocarditis virus RNA [PDF]
A protein factor that specifically binds to the 5'‐untranslated region of encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) RNA has been found in extracts of ascites carcinoma Krebs‐2 cells. This was done using UV‐irradiation on extracts supplemented with in vitro synthesized 32P‐labelled transcripts followed by analysis of crosslinked proteins by SDS‐polyacrylamide ...

Structural Components for Amplification of Positive and Negative Strand VEEV Splitzicons
RNA is a promising nucleic acid technology for both vaccines and therapeutics, and replicon RNA has gained traction as a next-generation RNA modality. Replicon RNA self-amplifies using a replicase complex derived from alphaviral non-structural proteins ...

Control of Listeria monocytogenes virulence by 5′-untranslated RNA
The Gram-positive bacterium Listeria monocytogenes uses a wide range of virulence factors for its pathogenesis. Expression of five of these factors has previously been shown to be subjected to post-transcriptional regulation as a result of their long 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR).

Discovering non-coding RNA elements in Drosophila 3' untranslated regions [PDF]
The Non-Coding RNA (ncRNA) elements in the 3' Untranslated Regions (3'-UTRs) are known to participate in the genes' post-transcriptional regulations. Inferring co-expression patterns of the genes through clustering these 3'-UTR ncRNA elements will provide invaluable insights for studying their biological functions. In this paper, we propose an improved

Functions of the 5′- and 3′-untranslated regions of tobamovirus RNA
The tobamovirus genome is a 5'-m(7)G-capped RNA that carries a tRNA-like structure at its 3'-terminus. The genomic RNA serves as the template for both translation and negative-strand RNA synthesis. The 5'- and 3'-untranslated regions (UTRs) of the genomic RNA contain elements that enhance translation, and the 3'-UTR also contains the elements necessary

Transcription termination and antitermination of bacterial CRISPR arrays
A hallmark of CRISPR-Cas immunity systems is the CRISPR array, a genomic locus consisting of short, repeated sequences (‘repeats’) interspersed with short, variable sequences (‘spacers’). CRISPR arrays are transcribed and processed into individual CRISPR

Improved annotation of 3' untranslated regions and complex loci by combination of strand-specific direct RNA sequencing, RNA-seq and ESTs [PDF]
The reference annotations made for a genome sequence provide the framework for all subsequent analyses of the genome. Correct and complete annotation in addition to the underlying genomic sequence is particularly important when interpreting the results ...

Tunable protein synthesis by transcript isoforms in human cells
Eukaryotic genes generate multiple RNA transcript isoforms though alternative transcription, splicing, and polyadenylation. However, the relationship between human transcript diversity and protein production is complex as each isoform can be translated ...

Sequences at the 3′ Untranslated Region of Bamboo Mosaic Potexvirus RNA Interact with the Viral RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerase [PDF]
ABSTRACT The 3′ untranslated region (UTR) of bamboo mosaic potexvirus (BaMV) genomic RNA was found to fold into a series of stem-loop structures including a pseudoknot structure. These structures were demonstrated to be important for viral RNA replication and were believed to be recognized by the replicase (C.-P.
